I believe in gravy, does that count?

Nah - BACON needs bread, butter and Brown Sauce.
Gravy needs beef, or chicken, or lamb, followed by bread to clean it all up so it isn't wasted!

I then realized I leave food on my plate or in the bowl.
So, to not let the food go to waste, I started using bread to do just as you qualify.
Thing is, the food is still going to waist .

When a dog falls over in the garden and no one is around to see it, was there gravity?

I had to take some stuff[tm] over to my parents. On the way, by pure chance, I met my Dad as he walked home and we were about to pass the pub when he suggested a glass.
Now, the Dad Rules state [Section 3.2.4 - Dad's Always Buy] that being a father it is my responsibility to buy. But my father is also a Dad, well he would have to be, so he has to buy. Splitting the bill is something only other people do. So I bought the drinks.
This placed Dad in the awkward position of being a Drink Down. So he did what all Dad's must do a bought another round. This'll never work, he's bought me a beer so I must reciprocate and my reciprocation will no doubt be reciprocated.
As I said, being a Dad is hard.

Which explains why you only got back to your PC at 1:30 in the afternoon the following day?

What he bought you a beer, Did you swap it for a Gin?

Recursive Reciprocation is a wonderful thing!

I always called it the 'Irish Round'. Buy a drink for everyone who's bought you one plus anyone else you care for. They are then obliged to return the compliment and so it continues.

Yeah that would work.
Years ago I worked as a welder in the North US and worked with gents of all persuasions and we would all go to the pub across the street from the plant and I would end up drinking and buying all flavors of liquors because I worked with Mexicans, Germans, Dutch, etc.. Was an interesting experience!

I always favoured 'buying out'. You drank your fill and then paid the bill when you wanted to leave; early leavers got fracked but those of a stronger disposition generally got by lightly...

Maybe you do, never happened to me.
A bad example was buying a piss, similar rule but you paid to leave the bar, i.e. just go the loo. I've seen £100+ tabs hit before the first one wavered...

I think I passed out drunk once, after a three-legged pub-crawl (well, thirteen-legged if I remember correctly, they were twelve of us ties together IIRC) at university. But I had got back to the girlfriends room first, much to her annoyance.
But guess who carried the razor?

Left Canadian defense minister says space aliens are among us.
Click.[^]
Now I know defense minister from the 60's, but hey, who knows what's going on up north right now, we down south request an intervention from the empire, maybe an investigation or something.

Is that a real site or a satire site? I'm not familiar with abovetopsecret.com
That guy is nuts!

I saw this on Reddit yesterday, the original interview was on Russia Today. RT is pretty much a pro-Russia propaganda machine, it tends to be pro-Arab also, so was popular with people when I lived over there.
So either he's nuts, or we've had regular visits from aliens, or something else.

I think it may well be a real satire site. If the twat is serious then he needs one of those long jackets with the fetching tie-behind cuffs.

The Canadians may be this very minute may be planning a full scale attack on New Hampshire because they suspect nuclear weapons there, and a blonde haired Sasquatch space alien held in some New Hampshire jail, who knows what they will do half cocked.
Now I know the national guard of New Hampshire can probably handle the combined military of Canada, but why have all that drama, UK must get involved now.

The USA and Canada have only been at war with each other once[^].
Clever observers will note that the USA lost.

Above Top Secret is serious, but it is also the go-to site for conspiracy nutters. Do you remember the TV show The X Files? Mulder and his pals would have visited several times a day. If you look, I am sure you can find "expose reports" that "prove" the Moon landings were hoaxed, that the CIA was behind the 9/11 attacks, and that President Obama is a not-quite human agent of the Greys, programmed to prepare the world for alien invasion.
The scary part is that the people who post such drivel actually believe this.

"He claimed the “tall whites” are working with the U.S. Air Force in Nevada, and that two women from that species had dressed as nuns and went to Las Vegas to shop. "
O.....kay.
Aliens. Nuns. Las Vegas. Shopping.
Sounds like the plot of a pretty poor pr0n film...
Let's be honest, everybody in Vegas acts like either an alien or a terminal shroom addict anyway, so dressing up as a nun to buy stuff is hardly going to be noticed there.
